Crayon Rubbed Embossing

Hello! I had a wonderful weekend but not too much crafting going on. I did take some time this evening to finish a card I was making for 3 challenges. The sketch is from Create with Connie and Mary #219; colors are from colourQ #155; and the technique is from Hand Stamped Sentiments. By combining these challenge I created a card that has a vintage feel. Here is my card..
 

 I used the Finial Press Impressions Folder with the Crayon Rubbed Embossing. I then used my sponge daubers and added So Safron, Wisteria Wonder (I had no Pale Plum), then Rich Razzleberry...in that order. I also made my own shimmer Mist with Rubbing Alcohol, Shimmer Paint, and reinkers. I used this to color the Paper Flowers. I also used the Color Spritzer on the petals as well. I really LOVED this technique! It was so simple to do and we will be using this at our next Stamp Camp!
Thanks for stopping!! :)
